The SunglassRevivers standard

compatible lenses, built like they belong there

We obsess over one thing: that your revived sunglasses look, fit and perform like the day you bought them. Every lens leaves our workshop only when we would wear it ourselves.

01

Optical-grade clarity

Distortion-free lenses cut from hard-coated polycarbonate (CR39 for clear options) — crisp edges, true colours, zero eye strain.

02

Cut to your exact model

Precision-machined to the curve and bevel of this frame model, so they click in at home and sit flush — no gaps, no rattle.

03

100% UV400, every colour

Full UVA/UVB protection is built into the material itself — and polarized options cut reflected glare from roads, water and snow.

04

Backed for 3 full years

Quality-checked before shipping and covered by our 3-year warranty against manufacturing defects — at a fraction of the price of a new pair.

Independently manufactured compatible parts — not products of the frame brands. That independence is what lets us focus everything on quality and price.

DETAILS

about this product

RX1972V Octagon is the prescription version of Ray-Ban's eight-sided 1972 frame, built entirely in metal with 140mm arms shaped to meet the octagon's angled edges. This aftermarket pair follows that same angled profile, matching the prescription front rather than the smoother curve found on Ray-Ban's round or oval eyeglass lines. The sunglasses-only RB1972 shares this exact shape, so the RX prefix on the code is what confirms the prescription version specifically.

An octagonal front changes the angle at which the arm meets the hinge compared with a round or square frame, so the screw takes load from a sharper direction. If one temple sits slightly proud of the frame front, checking hinge tension first is usually quicker than assuming the arm itself needs adjusting. Because octagon shapes are uncommon, keeping the exact product code handy when ordering is more reliable than trying to describe the angle from memory.
